Klondike is a solitaire card game often known purely by the name
of Solitaire. It is probably the most well known solo card game. It has been reported to be the most
commonly played computer game in recent history, possibly ranking higher than even Tetris.

Taking a standard 52-card deck of playing cards (without Jokers), deal one upturned card on the left
of your playing area, then six downturned cards (from left to right). On top of the downturned cards,
deal an upturned card on the left-most downturned pile, and downturned cards on the rest until all piles
have an upturned card.

The four foundations are built up by suit from Ace to King, and the tableau piles can be built down
by alternate colours, and partial or complete piles can be moved if they are built down by alternate
colours also. Any empty piles can be filled with a King or a pile of cards with a King at the top.

There are many keys you can use to make your game playing more efficient:

Space

Auto-finish—In foundation games, this moves all the cards it can up to the foundations

z

Undo

x

Redo

n

New Game

g

Replay the same game

There is also a card-finder keyboard feature you can use to help you locate cards:

a

Highlight the aces

1 though 9

Highlight the cards with the rank pressed

0 or t

Highlight the tens

d, c, h, s

Highlight the cards with the suit

r, b

Highlight the red or black cards

You may combine the rank keys with the suit or color keys. For example, if you hold down the "5" key and
the "d" key then only the 5 of diamonds will be highlighted. "a" and "r" will highlight the red aces.

Clicking or dragging a card that isn't immediately accessible will attempt to move all the cards
above it in its stack until the move is valid. The effect will be the same as clicking each card. If you
cancel the drag or undo the move, all the cards will go back to where they were.

Dragging a card or cards to the middle of a stack will attempt to move all the cards above the
destination out of the way. The effect is the same as clicking each card. To see where the cards will
move, hold the dragged card(s) at the destination for a second. If you decide to move the dragged
card(s) somewhere else, just drag them there and the other cards will go back to where they
were. Undoing the move will also move the cards back.

If you drag a card or cards to the middle of a stack and the cards that move away would be valid to
move back on top of the dragged card(s), then they'll slide out of the way and let you just slip the
card(s) in.
